The Artist-Fan Connection

Hello Beautiful Thinkers,

So a while back I posted a prompt based on the book Carry On by Rainbow Rowell. It turns out this book is being re-released with a new paperback cover art. The cover art is pretty cool but cooler than that is that Rainbow Rowell posted on social media that she will be doing personalized signatures on copies of the book bought from an indie bookstore website called The Bookworm. It’s looks like a pretty reasonable price for fans to get a personal signed copy of the book. I’ve always loved the idea of book signings. I think that particularly for artists that are just starting out it’s important to see those that they admire reaping the rewards of success. Write a scene in which your character is meeting someone who she has admired the work of since first seeing it. What does this meeting feel like for your character? How does it influence her future?

P.S. To those that might want a personalized copy of your own, this is important, when you check out, please say who the book is for in the “order comments” field, which looks like this:
